This picture was taken in Chocó, maybe the most poor place in Colombia. This was the day I came, in the “biggest“ city of the region. The sea is always changing, and when the tide is low, children get into the sea and play and try to fish.

I was visiting Barú, the place with more contrast of rich and poor people I´ve ever seen. I was trying to get somewhere because I was lost and no one, in the “rich“ side of the island help me. Then I got more into the island and entered to the town, and these is what I saw. Of course these family helped me get my way, and I got the chance to know these beautiful people. The boy was taking “a shower“ into a pot, actually he was crying and the reflection of their house is visible in his eyes.

This pohoto was took in Chocó too. The funny thing here is that the houses are only painted in the front, because is what tourist see. The contraste between the girl and the yellow wall captured my attention, but the beautiful contrast between the yellow and the grey walls, are what made me be more proud about my photo.
